I can reproduce the freezes under MacOS 10.4.11 using the latest  
Firefox.  It looks like a Mozilla window updating problem.  I can  
undo the freeze simply by moving the scroll bar.  I don't need to do  
a resize.  I cannot find anything in the system, java or crash logs  
that might relate to this.  I'm guessing Mozilla and MacOS are not  
playing completely nice on window updates.  I think this qualifies as  
a mozilla bug.

Ubuntu Linux with Sun_JRE works fine.  I cannot find any way to get  
Firefox to freeze (I'm using version 3.07 rather than 3.09)
